 | | At home, we are currently reading On the Banks of Plum Creek, from the Little House on the Prairie series. |
 | | I never read the series as a kid, being under some mis-impression that it was "girl stuff", whatever that was. |
 | | The amount of domain knowledge required to be a successful homesteader was enormous: how to trap animals, how to build a house from logs, how to build a house from sod, how to make soap, how to raise various crops, how to care for horses and cows, how to make shoes, etc. But I digress. |
